Chapter 42 Difficulties of Birds, Reasons for Failure

The electric current that Liuyun was exerting at this moment was far from being able to penetrate objects. It was not because his chakra was insufficient, but that his palm would be injured by the electric current.

This puzzled Liuyun. In the original work, Kakashi didn't seem to have this problem...

This is the difficulty Liuyun is currently facing. Only if this difficulty is overcome can Chidori be developed.

"Thunder itself is a very difficult force to control. If you want to make it attach to your palm without hurting yourself, and at the same time have the penetrating power of thunder, this is theoretically very difficult to do..."

For a moment, Orochimaru couldn't think of how to solve the difficulties raised by Liuyun.

Liuyun was not surprised by this. After all, Chidori was an A-level ninjutsu, and its difficulty level was comparable to that of Rasengan. The original work only mentioned it briefly, and the key issues still had to be figured out by themselves.

Now he handed this difficult problem to Orochimaru, hoping that this master of ninjutsu could help him find the solution.

"Write down the seal sequence you just made. I'll go back and study it. Come to my house tomorrow morning to find me..."

Liuyun had formed the seals very quickly just now, and there were a lot of seals, so he did not look at them carefully, and asked Liuyun to write them down.

Liuyun nodded and took out a pen and paper from his schoolbag. Orochimaru also gave his home address.

After taking the paper, Orochimaru looked at the seal on it thoughtfully. He chatted with Liuyun for a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving.

The new ninjutsu piqued his interest and he felt that it had the potential to succeed, so he couldn't wait to learn and try it out.

Liuyun returned home, put down his schoolbag, said a few words to Asuka who had resigned from her job to grow flowers at home, and then strode out of the house.

He trotted all the way from home to Konoha Hospital, paid the fee, registered, and found a medical ninja.

"My palm was injured by electricity. Please use medical ninjutsu to heal me."

Liuyun took the initiative to tell about his injuries.

"Um... let me see..."

The female medical ninja looked at the palm carefully and confirmed that it was indeed an electric shock injury. She immediately used medical ninjutsu to begin treatment.

"Little brother, how did you get hurt like this? And judging from the appearance of your palm, it shouldn't have been caused on the first day, right?"

The female medical ninja asked with a frown while treating the patient.

"Yeah, sister, your guess is right, but I can't reveal the specific reason..." Liuyun replied with a wry smile.

"..."

The female ninja was a little surprised by Liuyun's answer. She just nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.

Ten minutes later, Liuyun felt that the pain in his palm had obviously subsided a lot.

"Sister, I just saw that they were recruiting medical ninjas in the hospital lobby. Do you have to be a Genin to learn medical ninjutsu?"

Out of curiosity about medical ninjutsu, Liuyun raised this question.

"Why? Are you interested in medical ninjutsu, little brother?"

"Yeah, I'm indeed interested. I think medical ninjas are the angels in the ninja world." Liuyun flattered the female ninja a little.

"Haha... If you don't pursue powerful ninjutsu, why would you want to learn medical ninjutsu?"

"If you want to be a medical ninja, you must have a forehead protector. If you are not even a ninja, you may not even have chakra, so how can you learn medical ninjutsu..." The female ninja replied with a smile.

"is that so……"

Liuyun whispered, he actually wanted to learn some medical ninjutsu. After all, it is always good to have many skills, and medical ninjutsu is still very useful at critical moments.

Moreover, his own mental strength is very strong, and with the help of his shadow clone, he can learn things very quickly and does not have to worry about lack of energy.

Especially since we still have the summer vacation, it is a good opportunity to prepare a few more practice projects.

Unfortunately, one needs to be a ninja to sign up for medical ninjutsu... If I want to learn it, I guess I'll have to wait until I get the Konoha forehead protector.

“It’s cured!”

Soon, the female ninja healed Liuyun's injuries.

"Your injury is not serious, but it is best to reduce hand activities and avoid hurting your palm again..." the young lady kindly reminded.

Liuyun's hands have a lot of calluses and are very rough. It's obvious that he is not a simple little boy.

"Okay, thank you, miss. I'll pay attention."

Liuyun bowed slightly and stood up to say goodbye.

It was impossible for him to give up the research and development of Chidori.

The next morning, Liuyun completed his daily morning exercise task as usual. After returning home for breakfast, he hurried to Orochimaru's residence.

Orochimaru is a war orphan. He lives alone in his family. The mansion he lives in is not small and the location is very remote.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the area where his family lived was very close to the cemetery of Konoha...

"Master Orochimaru!"

When he saw Orochimaru, Liuyun bowed and saluted.

"No need to be polite, come in." Orochimaru waved his hand, and the two of them came to the garden together.

Liuyun saw a lot of strange snakes in the garden, in all colors, which made people feel a little creepy.

Orochimaru just waved his hand, and the snakes in the garden immediately scattered to various corners and disappeared.

"I have already learned about the new technique yesterday. I have to say that you, Liuyun-kun, are truly a ninjutsu genius. At such a young age, you have already gained a preliminary understanding of the changes in the form and nature of chakra..."

Orochimaru couldn't help but exclaim in praise, but Liuyun didn't feel much when he heard it.

After all, he was just copying the homework.

In the original work, Kakashi explained the concept of chakra nature changes and form changes more than once. Combined with the various ninjutsu knowledge in the school, it was not difficult for Liuyun to understand.

He invested a lot of time and energy in the research and development of Chidori, and a large part of this energy was focused on studying the changes in the nature and form of chakra.

If you want to create a Chidori, these two points are the basic prerequisites.

Although the hand-gathering electric current that Liuyun performed yesterday seemed simple, in the eyes of a ninjutsu expert like Orochimaru, performing this method requires extremely high ninjutsu attainments.

Only Orochimaru, who had a deep understanding of this new technique, realized how extraordinary this elementary school student in front of him was.

Liuyun's understanding of chakra and ninjutsu far exceeds that of his peers. The two are not on the same level at all. Outstanding is not enough to describe his specialness.

He is like an alien hidden in the crowd, and he can remain undetected even if he has been among ordinary people for many years.

This is extremely terrifying when you think about it carefully, even Orochimaru felt some inexplicable fear about it.

If he hadn't happened to see Liuyun defeating seven Uchiha disciples, he probably wouldn't have known that there was such an outlier hidden in the ninja school!

"I'm aware of the difficulties you mentioned yesterday. In fact, there's nothing wrong with your new technique. There's basically no problem with your ninjutsu and seals..."

"The reason why you hurt yourself is because you are too conservative... Of course, it may also be because you don't have enough chakra, which makes the new technique unable to take shape..."

Hearing Orochimaru say this, Liuyun hurriedly asked for the specific reason.
